Viola P.o.v

We pulled up to the paved drive way to my small shabby house.Ash turned off the car and I just sat there wondering what he was thinking or what he was going to think when he saw my house. A house can say a lot about people , my house was beautiful on the outside light pink with white windows , a porch all around the house and cream color door. Anyone would love to live here if they had the chance to live a happy life , unlike me. In the inside empty , cold , dark ,broken and ugly just like me.I don't know where I went wrong I was happy before , before the accident with my parents , before foster care.

"Viola honey get back here"

My mommy was calling me for lunch , they surprised me and took me to a lake for my sixth birthday. I was so excited I loved to swim and be with my parents. My daddy said we couldn't have a party this year and I know why. Daddy had just gotten fired from his job and my parents had an argument about it. We've been struggling for years but we always had food on the table with clothe on our back and I was proud because I helped with the money. I made bracelets and sold them in the subway. It wasn't much but it helped .

I had run off into a field filled with purple and pink flowers.I dragged myself up the hill and was amazed at what I saw.A meadow filled with colors and animals , blues , yellows, greens , pinks and purples. Horses , deer, bunnies , and birds. It was paradise and I threw myself on the grass and stared up at the sky.The grads gently kissed my skin and the wind sung me a lullaby of silence . I closed my eyes until I heard my mommy calling me but I just couldn't leave this spot right here. I closed my eyes again and breathed it all in , the dirt , the flowers, my strawberry scented shampoo and my dads clone.

"Hey princess " I looked up and say a pair of giant grey eyes looking down at me. My daddy was tall and very skinny , he had brown curls and needed to shave , sometimes I called him papa bear.

" Hi Papa Bear"

He laid down next to me and closed his eyes.

" you find a beautiful place to get lost"

And the next few minutes were silent and I didn't mind it It was peaceful and felt right. He took a velvet box out of his pocket.

" I've been saving up for months and bought you this . It was supposed to be a surprise but I think right now is the perfect time"

I grabbed the small velvet box and played with it with my tiny fingers.I opened the lid of it and it was a gold ring with tiny diamonds around it and in the inside was my name carved into it with the words "Baby Bear". I took the ring out and it turned out it was a necklace . Papa Bear pulled my black hair up and clasped the necklace on.Then turned me around and kissed my forehead I hugged him tight .

" My baby bear I'll always be here for you no matter what"

I grabbed the necklace around my neck and fought back the tears pushing forward.

Always...
